Max Armstrong recalls a time when a family stop for an in-field meal was more common. Those times where families gather to eat. He talks about a social media post from a Kerry Hoffschneider, Yor, Nebraska who recalls those times in the field when folks would prepare those meals, take a break and eat together. She points out that one thing folks around the world have in common is that they gather to eat. Max shares a challenge she offers calling on everyone who eats to stop and think.
